An annual fundraiser for Hōkūlani Holt's hālau, Pāʻū O Hiʻiaka. It will feature music, hula, gift items made by members of the hālau and their families and friends, light refreshments, and an exclusive tour of The Old Wailuku Inn.
Also featured will be the release of the new CD by Ahumanu. This will be the first place you can purchase the CD

Hula O Nā Keiki, a children’s solo hula competition, is held right here on the grounds of Kāʻanapali Beach Hotel. Though the event has grown over the years, from a single day affair to an entire weekend of Hawaiian arts and music, the objective has remained the same – to educate our children in the ways of our ancestors so that the culture can be carried forward.

Children from ages 5 years old to 17 years old will steal your heart and shutter your camera as you watch them compete in their categories for the coveted awards and titles. Besides each contestant going through a somewhat nerve-wracking interview in front of a panel of judges before the competition they are also required to memorize a chant in the native Hawaiian language. Later that evening they will perform one of their kahiko (traditional) and ʻauana (modern) style hula.

The next night is their last chance to prove to themselves, their hālau (hula school) and especially their kumu (teacher) that they have mastered the hula. Unless of course, they are also entered in the Pālua (couple) Division when we get see them dance one more time in tandem! It's a weekend of "oohs" and "ahs" of colorful costumes, sassy attitudes, and of course, expertise of traditional hula!

Hear Maui’s most popular female Hawaiian trio Ahumanu (Liz Morales, Marjalehua Apisaloma, and Kekai Robinson) blend their voices on stage. Guest can also enjoy fresh baked cookies and coffee while relaxing to the beautiful sounds of Hawai‘i
